Lithium, even in very small doses, works very well for me. Some side effects though; not severe, but still I am thinking of trying one of the newer medications.
Lamictal is supposed to have a strong anti-dep. effect (which is good for me) BUT....will it work well for the anxiety, agitation and rage???
Neurontin is supposed to work very well for anxiety, agitation, and rage...but maybe not much anti-dep. effect. Also, you would have to take the Neurontin 3 or 4 times a day..THAT SUCKS! I don't want to take more than 1 mood stabilizer. Anybody have any bright ideas, lol?
